House of Anhedonia - Immortal Bird

We are cursed

Darkened door

Hastened heartbeat

Stakes seem so high

In the moment

Come to terms

With your efforts

Treading water

Flexing muscle

Forsaken

Toxic urge

Declarations

Haze of ego

Sit in your shame

A stench you can’t wash out

In false accounts

Of your early actions

You’re not affected, you’re just mechanical

Try proving me wrong

I’ll leave the door open

And the light on

Avert your gaze

You paint the truth

In third-party blood

Give yourself to earth

Tethered by association

You weren’t invited

Borne of a parasite

Wrapped in your sweet disguise

I warned you

Carry objects

Not memories

Laughter airy as your conviction

Smile brittle as your interest

Pointless social exercises will not dictate what transpires

I will end you
